If I had to create a mini pedalboard.

Honestly, I’ve been kicking around this idea for a little bit. I was recently inspired from the J Mascis post I did a little while back. On that post, I talked about his main pedalboard that we all drool over, but he also had a “micro” board for travel or playing a single song as a guest musician on stage. That got me to start thinking about my own set up. Sometimes a micro board could come in real handy.

I typically don’t like the micro pedals. They’re great for pedalboard real estate, but can be hard to hit individually with your feet, and sometimes they have a lack of control options due to their size. But if you need something small, and something that can travel easily, they’re hard to beat.

So, for this post, I wanted to put a little thought on what pedals I would use personally. I do like to have a general boost, and occasionally a fuzz, so those have to be on board. I use the Phase 90 and a tremolo. For delays, I like to have a digital and an analog delay, and finally I need a reverb at the end.

I have 3 of them in my pedalboard: polytune (actually the original white version 1), t.c. hof mini and t.c. spark. They are mini, but they do a HUGE and great work!
And I have the Elec Lady from Mooer, another mini and great pedal!
